Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> Re: TNS Listener service question
If I understand you correctly, you are shutting down a listener on your NT box, and then, from your NT box, you are connecting to a remote database using SQL*Plus. Am I understanding you correctly?
You shouldn't need to have a listener running on your NT box to connect to a remote database, so that fact that SQL*Plus can connect doesn't surprise me. I don't understand why your GUI tools wouldn't connect, though I may also be misunderstanding your original note.
Best regards,
Jonathan Gennick
